Chapter 2 II

Annie's POV:

In the high part we sat here in the meeting hall. It's like a gymnasium with lots of seats. At the front is the speaker who will speak. Dr. Jackson Grimshaw, a scientist. He will lead Project Melos.

Everyone clapped and that's when the introduction began. We also introduced our other boss and head from here in Avalon. In Solara, I used to come from that country. Bonnieand I used to work together so we met.

"Good morning to all the new members of Project Melos! I congratulate you on your entry. I hope we can finish Project Melos successfully. I expect you all to work hard and give all your knowledge to make this project a success," introduction by Dr. Jackson.

The assistant director of Project Melos went up next. Dra. Ye, a chinese-american. The Race or Race of people is still based on the earliest country system in use.

He has already spoken about Project Melos. I listened carefully because I wanted to know important information about it. I must contribute well because I will not waste this opportunity. I want to save humanity from Melos Syndrome, especially my unborn baby.

"I know that you are excited to know the information about Project Melos. This is only a summary and we will give you, each one, documents regarding this project to further expand your knowledge. Also so that we can improve theProject even more Melos and overcome it," began Dra. Ye.

We all applauded. I looked at Bonnie who was wearing Dra. That's the attention. I listened again.

"For the past 20 years, it has been unheard of for babies to develop Melos Syndrome. No one, anyone or anything, knows where this disease comes from. No one knows how to treat and prevent Melos Syndrome. It seems that the lack of body parts has become normal among newborn babies. Thenumber of babies who are stillborn is also increasing. There is also an absence not only of limbs but also of internal organs like the case of Yuta Aramaki who was born without hands, feet, even intestines," explained Dra. That's why I felt sad and rubbed my stomach. I will not let my baby be born with Melos Syndrome. I will do everything to keep my baby safe from that syndrome.

"Let's also add to the knowledge based on the theory and therecognized knowledge of everyone, Melos Syndrome is a type of mutation that no one knows where it came from. Almost all animals have been studied but it is not a type of virus. In people also can't see the source. Does this disease seem to be a big issue for people. Since last hundred years there was TelosVirus that almost wiped out the number of people around the world, now it is the worsening Melos Syndrome.

I want everyone to be well informed because success is what we need to achieve not only in the field of medicine but also in Physics and Chemistry as well as in other branches of science.

Project Melos is a project that aims to create tools that can detect a baby's problem, how to prevent Melos Syndrome, even prevent it. Because we all know where babies are. With our technology Melos Syndrome cannot be detected. It's hard to believe but that's the truth," explained Dr. Ye at length.

Many gasped at a video of a baby with a water sac attached to his leg. One that is clear like jelly. It's a foot shape that doesn't seem to have been formed. When the video was played a doctor punctured the sac. There the water disappeared and it appeared that it was the baby's leg that was stunted in development. I can't believe how that happened.

"This is one of the shots last year of Chan Feng Yun, a baby boy. He came out with a water sac on his leg. It was not edited because it was all taken in the act. No one can answer what happened to him but it was reported that MelosSyndrome can't even be detected by ultrasound and thechildren appear normal because of the water sac that thebabies already had inside the mother's stomach. These are the limbs that are hindered from developing into a water sac. Nothing also a study that proved why and what that water sac really is. It was only then that it was discovered because of Feng Yun who was born that the water sac was formed after he was born. In addition, Melos Syndrome was also found to be something that inhibits the body for the baby to develop in its correct form. It's like a very serious illness that has no medicine. It doesn't even kill the child, but it causes a huge disability," explained Dra. Ye. .

I couldn't believe it, it was really a big revelation. MelosSyndrome is really getting worse.
